Well, it's a slightly more reasonable plan than that. First day of the new diet. I just wasn't able to stick with the crazy cheater diet.
1500 calories a day, 2250 calories two days a week.
Bowl of cheerios in skim milk for breakfast, large navel orange for my first snack at about 10:30 AM.
Moderately hungry, but not unbearable. Just about to head to lunch, where I will eat a salami and cheese sandwich.
I recently read an article that compared weight watchers to an RPG. The xkcd strip about exercise is also appropriate. We'll see if it's a game that holds my interest, but I'm hopeful.

I find it very satisfying and motivating to see my progress in graphical format. But I'm all OCD like that...
